Oh Man!!! I was going into this room to look for something, but

[NaMeaHou]

I forgot what room or what it was I was looking for.

I smack my head, and ask -

Have you ever done that?

[SOteric]

1. Sure, but I always get the train of thought back

by asking the question "What was I working on?" The answer almost always sends me back into the same room with a renewed info system.

5. Too many times

It's so frustrating.

Even worse is putting something in a safe place or obvious place. Of course, I can never remember where the safe or obvious place is! I talked to my sister about it, telling her I was getting a little worried. She simply said, "well, we're getting older." Crap.

2. Yes

it happens all the time to people...even as teens.

You're just busy thinking about something else.

[NaMeaHou]

3. But it happens even when I'm focused

and concentrating and repeating what I'm doing.

My mind never seemed to work like those others had, but this gets frustrating!

[Maple]

4. Well you may think you're focussed

but you'll find your mind has a way of wandering off onto a thousand other things while you're on 'automatic'

'Automatic' is what you're on doing daily routine things.

6. All the time

but that's old age coming on.
